I am still looking for info on Frederick Stricker 1825 Pottstown. I have been searching and searching for his birth to find his birth parents no luck there and also there doesn't seem to be a marriage for him to mary Fillmam c1828 on the census's she is always listed as Fillman and not Stricker.Was this her 2nd marriage or where they just living together.
